Yesterday musician, poet, comedian, and skeptic Tim Minchin announced that he would be playing in New York City on May 4th. Now that my place amongst the audience is guaranteed, I can announce to all of you that tickets are on sale NOW at Livenation.com

If you’ve never heard of Tim, shame on you. He is a world renowned comedic singer/songwriter, he recently composed the score to a musical adaptation of Roald Dahl’s Matilda, and lent his voice talents to the now Oscar nominated The Lost Thing. His music deals with skeptical, atheist, and scientific issues such as the song “If I Didn’t Have You”, a statistically accurate love song, and the wonderfully animated Pope Song– which is very NSFW and if you have any love of the church, will offend you greatly. It is also hilarious. He made his American debut this month on Conan O’Brien and I for one, welcome our new crazy-haired, guyliner-ed, overlord.

So go get your tickets now! Seating is limited and it’s bound to be an amazing show! I’m going to leave you with my favorite song. Enjoy!
